For her 6th birthday, my dad sent my daughter a birthday card with dollar bills inside. Being a kid, she just tore the envelope open, and dollar bills went flying everywhere.

Now, she wasn’t all that impressed by the fact that she got money. No, she was impressed by who was on the dollar bills.

“How’d Papa know that’s my favorite president??” she squealed. She was completely and utterly delighted that her grandfather had sent her something with pictures of George Washington. That mattered more than anything else.
